Re: How can I make homade vines?
You don't really make homemade vines, you purchase them from reptile stores and they're relatively cheap and last long. I use the exo terra ones and thought at first having read the reviews that they may be bad but they're actually a really good product. Smaller ones are fine for small tree frogs or can be wrapped around the large to create a more vine effect. Large ones are ideal for the larger tree frogs. Much better than branches imo as they do not mold
Re: How can I make homade vines?
Not true. Someone, somewhere, i swear it was here. Took nylon rope, wove spagum moss through it, then spread a moss paste(google it, yuck), spread it on the rope with chunks of live moss, and let it grow. Looked friggin UUUUUH-MAAAAAAYZ-ING!

Flybyferns has a good one that she made, I don't have it bookmarked to pull up quickly. I took a bendable vine and wrapped it with a combination of sheet moss, sphagnum moss, and fishing line. It turned out pretty good, but didn't work out well in a ventilated tree frog tank. I notice those tend to be more for dart tanks where high humidity is constantly maintained. If you just want a simple vine, rather than a moss vine, I'm sure you can search instructions or just buy some.

A simple vine can be made as easily as a few pieces of twine or rope bundled, covered in silicone and then covered in dry cocofiber or peat moss.

Re: How can I make homade vines?
I stand corrected, never knew people would make them themselves never seen it before but more hassle than paying a 10er. Would look very nice in a natural set up, though!
Re: How can I make homade vines?
Ah, sorry, I wasn't trying to correct anyone, just offering advice.
The pre made vines are cool and have their place. But sometimes, the design of a tank kind of eliminates using a pre made vine. When I built my Madagascar tank, I used tubing that I made look like vines to transport the water for the rain system I had built into it. No pre made vine could cut it for that purpose. Besides, a lot of folk like doing crafty things. DIY is fun, sometimes lol

Re: How can I make homade vines?
Haha, it's always good to learn new things! Quite a good idea that. I'm terrible at diy, I mean I can put a cabinet together but that's only cos it comes with instructions lol
Re: How can I make homade vines?
Depends on the cabinet and who makes it. Those ikea instructions were written by Satan himself, that I am convinced lol
